OH gosh - I remember when it wasn't sure Bramble would survive kittenhood. She is lovely!
Can she not be fitted with a brace? Would some surgery not help, as it does in humans? I even read about a treatment for children where gentle electronic impulses are delivered to the muscles on the curved side at night and that gently and eventually pushes the spine into shape. Don't know how a cat would take to that though!
I am now reading about physical therapy, using a stool softener to help with the pooping, and the idea of Bramble getting a second assessment from an orthopedic specialist.
I hope the following are helpful:

"If your cat is showing neurological signs such as dizziness, seizures or paralysis postoperatively, restricted activity [with a kitten? lol] combined with physical therapy may be helpful."
